HT4995 I disabled location services at setup.  How do I now get it enabled?  The option to turn on is greyed  out.

I upgraded to iOS 5 and mistakenly opted not to activate location services.  It is now greyed out.  How do I now enable location services?

i tried allowing changes to both the account and location services in the restrictions area and I still cannot get the location services to enable.  Any other suggestions?  I'm so frustrated!

  • I have recently copied my iTunes to a new computer using the instructions from Apple site, via an external drive. My iPod will not sync on the new computer. The option to sync automatically is greyed out and it won't let me set it. How do I resolve?

    I have recently installed iTunes on a new Windows 8 laptop and copied from my old XP system using an external drive. This all went ok. The problem is that i can't get my iPod classic to sync on the new laptop. I did a factory reset and re-install. It still won't sync. When I hit the 'sync' icon it does nothing. In the Options screen the option to automatically sync is greyed out and doesn't allow me to enter anything in the box. How can i resolve this?

    You need iTunes on the computer. There is no iTunes for your phone. See:

    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.

    I think it's QuickTime player causing the problem, when I try to open it I get the windows error that an error has occured
    Let's try swapping out your QuickTime again, taking a few extra explicit precautions this time.
    Head into your Add/Remove programs. uninstall QuickTime.
    Next, we’ll manually remove any leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx. (If “Hide filename extensions for known file types” is enabled on the PC, then those two files will appear as “QuickTime” and QuickTimeVR”.)
    7. Restart your computer.
    Now download and save a copy of the latest standalone QuickTime installer to your hard drive. (We'll run the install from there rather than online.)
    Latest Quicktime Installers … get the one that doesn’t mention iTunes
    Switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install. Start the install by doubleclicking the QuickTimeInstaller.exe.
    If that install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching iTunes again. Does your iTunes launch properly now?
    (If you get an error message on the QuickTime uninstall or standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. Include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

  • I am trying to export all of the separate audio files from Logic Pro X so that I can transfer them into pro Pro Tools, however it won't let me do it without the panning information. The option to untick panning is greyed out. How can I do it?

    I have exported the separate audio files, but it contains the panning information. When the export pop up window opens, the export with panning information box is ticked, but it is greyed out so it won't let me unselect it. How do I fix this problem?

    A brief and probably non-helpful answer: I know of no way to eliminate your large amount of duplicates other than by repetitive, tedious manual effort.
    *There has got to be a simpler way.*
    I hope you're right, but I don't think there is a simpler way.
    BACKUP:  It also appears that the only way I can back up the catalog is to shut down LR.  Really?!
    Yes, really

  • I disabled Location Services and now I want to enable.

    I disabled Location Services but now I wish to enable it. Both Location Services and Find My Phone app cannot be highlighted. How can I restore Location Services once it has been turned off? Thanks!

    Hello john r.from ma,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS 7: Understanding Location Services
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5594
    Turning Location Services on or off
    You can turn Location Services on or off at Settings > Privacy > Location Services. You can turn Location Services on either during the Setup Assistant process or later through the Location Services setting. You can turn it off if you don't want to use this feature or to conserve battery life. You can individually control which apps and system services have access to Location Services data.
    Settings > Privacy > Location Services
    Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services
    By enabling Location Services, location-based system services such as these will also be enabled:
    Popular Near Me: Your iPhone will periodically send locations of where you have purchased or used Apps in an anonymous and encrypted form to Apple to improve a crowd-sourced database that may be used to offer geographically-relevant Apps.
    Frequent Locations: Your iPhone will keep track of places you have recently been, as well as how often and when you visited them, in order to learn places that are significant to you. This data is kept solely on your device and won't be sent to Apple without your consent. It will be used to provide you with personalized services, such as predictive traffic routing.
    Location-Based iAds: Your iPhone will send your location to Apple in order to provide you with geographically relevant iAds.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

    Not able to acess app store .. Tried every thing with ... Dns change .. Time chage.... Reset... Location services .suggest me how to resolve this issue

    Hi aditya123,
    If you are having difficulty connecting to the App store from your iPhone, you may want to try the steps in this article -
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
    Specifically -
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    It looks like you have already done many of these, but there are a few more to check out.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • If I have both my iPhone and my iPad set up on the Find iPhone App, and I disable location services on my iPhone, will I still be able to track my iPad on this app?

    If I have both my iPhone and my iPad set up on the "Find iPhone" app, and I disable location services on my iPhone, will I still be able to track my iPad from my iPhone by using this app?

    iWork is universal, so it will work full-res on the iPad. This is true for any app which has the plus sign symbol (in the App Store in iTunes it will say "This app is designed for iPhone and iPad".

    You'll have to turn location services on in order to track it on a map.  To do this, go to Settings>Privacy>Location Services.

  • Disable Location Services - iOS, Intune MDM

    Hi
    I'm trying to find a way to prevent users from being able to change their location services options.
    I know there's an option to do it on an iOS device manually with a restriction \ parental control on the "Location Services" area with a passcode.
    my goal is to do the same from the MDM.
    I have Apple Configurator up and running and I have an Intune account,  but I couldn't find any way to do it from any of them :/
    I even tried to deploy a profile with the Apple Configurator but there's no option for "location services". I guess it's because users need to first define their Location once and only then apply the restriction. I don't mind deploying all the
    devices the location, as they're all from the same country
    any original idea would be great!
    Tamir Levy

    I know this is old but I’m trying to clean up old posts. Did you ever solve this? If so it would be good if you could post the solution to assist others. If not, at this stage,
    as nobody has answered, I would recommend that you call Intune support.
    You will find your local Intune support number here

    - Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

  • I have my photos on an eternal USB connected drive. I am trying to import them to PSE. The "Copy on Import" button is greyed out. How can I enable it so I can disconnect the external drive?.

    The "Copy on Import" button is greyed out. How can I enable it so I can disconnect the external drive?.

    "Copy" is normally used when connecting a camera or card reader.
    Simply copy or move folders from your external drive to your computer hard drive, then from the Organizer menu click:
    File >> Get Photos & Videos >> From Files & Folders
    Then navigate to the new location on your internal hard drive.

  • Apps wanting to access my location when not in use (and not giving the option to turn it off)

    For most apps, I can choose to share my location 1) not at all; 2) when the app is in use (my favourite); 3) always (even when not in use).
    Why do some apps not offer the second option?
    For instance, I want to use an app that locates the nearest automatic external defibrillator (if someone has a cardiac arrest) but I can only use the app when I allow the app to access my location all the time. Given the fact that I will use this app perhaps only once every 15 years, I see no point in giving them my location for the next 15 years! That's just a waste of battery power and also a breach of my privacy.
    Second example: Apple's own weather app. I check the weather maybe once every month. I do not want the app to locate me all the time. But I can only choose between option 1) and 3) above.
    Is there a technical reason apps work like this? Or are they just sneakily trying to get as much information about me as possible?
    Thanks for your thoughts.
    PS: I am using iphone 6, iOS8.3

    everything rudegar said is right on.  Still, 10% overnight is more than you would expect - so something is still running.  try-
    double click the home button, and see what apps are listed as recent.  one or more of them might be still churning away.  it is a good idea to close those out fully every night.  Any of those apps with notifications or location services may be checking in every now and then and using your power.
    you mentioned airplane mode is 'off'.  this may be a terminolgy thing - but having airplane mode 'off', means that the radios are on.  WiFi, and 3 G if you have it.    turning airplane mode "on" turns off the radios.
    with everything off on mine - (except I leave the wifi on) -  i use 2 or 3% overnight. 
    But if you really want it off - do what rudegar says.

How do I get rid of these photos? I have read other questions that say to plug the iPod into the computer and like un-sync it, but I downloaded the new iTunes and it doesnt have a photos tab. Does anyone know how to solve my problem? Please and Thank You, Megan!
